So, I just picked up a part-time temp job in Mt. Sterling, for GK Services. I was handed a bunch of papers to read over at the temp Agency, and on several paragraphs of the sheets titled company policy, and safety; It was made clear that the company, this is in their words, "will release and/or terminate any full-time employee, or temporary agent, who willfully keeps a firearm on any portion of our property." and "It is illegal to keep a deadly weapon in non-company owned vehicles". and my favorite; "Legal action will be filed against any person(s) who violate our policy on deadly weapons to the fullest extent of the law".
So, I kinda like my new job, atleast since I just had my first day, and I don't want to screw it up by informing the company management that their policy for their property, atleast concerning their employee parking lot, is in violation of KRS 237.106;
"237.106 Right of employees and other persons to possess firearms in vehicle -- Employer liable for denying right -- Exceptions.

(3) A firearm may be removed from the vehicle or handled in the case of self-defense, defense of another, defense of property, or as authorized by the owner, lessee, or occupant of the property.

Any tips on this? I got hired on for night shift, 2:30p-11:00p, and don't want to get into my car at night, in the half-lit parking lot, and not be able to defend myself from any would be robber who was stalking industrial parking lots...
Or perhaps one of you kind gentlemen, would like to inform my new employer of their violations of state law~ Either or would be fine for me ^~^
